What you need to know..
Synthetic and roving double and single ended dreads can be braided into hair over 3 inches long to provide semi permanent dread extensions for up to 3 or 4 weeks or more depending on how long you want to keep them in for.They provide a wonderful way to change the style and colour of your hair temporarily.
I can also make dread falls, which are semi permanent and attached to elasticated lace to provide a stretchy but secure way to change your hair for as little as just a evening out by tying around your natural hair when put in buns or bunches.
I hand make these to your specifications and can make a selection of different types.
I offer a variety of options of synthetic hair design
-Dread Kits
-Accent dread kits
-Dread falls
-Accent dread falls
-Synthetic/roving
-Curly dread kits
Here are the basics for the custom design I offer.
-A basic dread kit consists of 50 double ended dreads or 90 single ended dreads. You can also order from as a little as 10 dreads up to as many as you want!
-Up to 3 colours can be chosen per basic kit, more colours can be added but please contact me first.
-Falls come in pairs, 20 double ended dreads, or 40 single ended dreads per fall. Two falls per set.
Extra options are available, these include,
Solid coloured dreads, blended coloured dreads, swirled/candycane dreads or transitional dreads, where the root is one colour and the tip another.
A small extra charge will be charged for transitional and candycane dreads due to the extra time involved in making them. Extras are also available please see extras page for more detail!
Before ordering please make sure you are absolutely sure of what colours, combinations and lengths you want. I want to make lengths of dreads clear, when installed dreads will reach these points approx.
Lengths
Short - 6'' - 8'' Ear to chin length
Medium - 10'' - 12'' Chin to shoulder length
Long - 18'' - 20'' Below shoulder to mid chest
Extra long- 24'' Mid back
Dread Style and Turn around time.
My speciality when making dreads is to make a quite skinny dread, that is smooth and sleek and with a skinny taper towards the end. PLEASE take this into account when ordering. For examples of thickness see the gallery.
If thicker dreads are required, there will be a small charge as this uses more materials. Please contact me for more information.
Turn around time is generally 3 - 4 weeks from time of payment. I will take on rush orders, i.e needed in 12 days or less, providing I have the materials in stock. There will be a extra charge for this though. This will cost an extra £15.00 per order. You can add the option on the ordering page. Please contact me before ordering to make sure I have the colours you want in stock.
Shipping and Refunds
Shipping within the UK is charged at a standard price. Overseas shipping will be a bit more expensive, there is a option to add this to your basket for custom orders.
I do not offer refunds due to hygiene reasons, unless the item is seriously faulty and proof will be required and items sent back. Refunds will only be issued on receipt of returned items. I also do not refund postage.
